In this work, we study the physical and kinematical properties of the emission line region of the Seyfert 1.5 galaxy Mrk 817 using three sets of observations...
Complex particle acceleration processes in the hotspots of 3C 105 and 3C 445
We investigate the nature of the broad-band emission associated with the low-power radio hotspots 3C 105 South and 3C 445 South. Both hotspot regions are...
Composite bulges - II. Classical bulges and nuclear discs in barred galaxies: the contrasting cases of NGC 4608 and NGC 4643
We present detailed morphological, photometric, and stellar-kinematic analyses of the central regions of two massive, early-type barred galaxies with nearly...
Composite bulges: the coexistence of classical bulges and discy pseudo-bulges in S0 and spiral galaxies
We present an analysis of nine S0-Sb galaxies which have (photometric) bulges consisting of two distinct components. The outer component is a flattened...
Comprehensive analytic formulae for stellar evolution as a function of mass and metallicity
We present analytic formulae that approximate the evolution of stars for a wide range of mass M and metallicity Z. Stellar luminosity, radius and core mass are...
Conditions for Reionizing the Universe with a Low Galaxy Ionizing Photon Escape Fraction
We explore scenarios for reionizing the intergalactic medium with low galaxy ionizing photon escape fractions. We combine simulation-based halo mass–dependent...
Confidence levels of evolutionary synthesis models
The stochastic nature of the IMF in young stellar clusters implies that clusters of the same mass and age do not present the same unique values of their...
Confidence levels of evolutionary synthesis models. II. On sampling and Poissonian fluctuations
In terms of statistical fluctuations, stellar population synthesis models are only asymptotically correct in the limit of a large number of stars, where...
Confidence Limits of Evolutionary Synthesis Models
The probabilistic nature of the IMF in stellar systems implies that clusters of the same mass and age do not present the same unique values of their observed...
